The Only Way Is Essex's Lauren Goodger insists she is "happy" to be single following the breakdown of her relationship with Mark Wright

Lauren Goodger insists she is "happy" to be single.

The 'Only Way Is Essex' star - who split from former fiance Mark Wright last August after 10 years of on-off dating - admitted she is glad to be on her own at the moment and won't be going out on the hunt for a new man any time soon.

She said: "I am single and I'm happy about it! I'm not looking for anybody but, yeah, it would be nice.

"I don't go out looking for a man. But then if something happens, then it happens."

While the 25-year-old beauty admitted she has been through a "lot of s**t" in the past, she is finally feeling "good" about herself.

Lauren added in an interview with new! magazine: "I feel good. I've been through a lot of s**t in the past, but I'm really happy."

After the fourth series of 'TOWIE' drew to a close last week, Lauren explained while she would love to star in the fifth season later this year, she knows "anything could happen".

She said: "I'd like to stay, but the next series is a long way off and anything could happen. It's has given me a lot of opportunities."
